Concord Crush Blossom Flower

I love this color!  I admit, I thought it was too dark at first, but now I really love it.  I used my new Blossom Flower Punch to create this card along with the Mixed Bunch stamp set.  I think it gives it almost a Dutch Delft look to it. 

I was really surprised at how bright the Whisper White Craft Ink came out on the dark purple cardstock.  Craft Ink holds it's true color, but it takes a while to dry completely, so don't touch it right away.  This design was borrowed from Lauri Ingram.  I used the Concord Crush Stitched Poly Ribbon and a dimensional to pop-up the center of the flower (cut out with the 3/4" Circle Punch).  The sentiment is from the Perfectly Penned stamp set.

Just a note, Concord Crush will be retiring in a few months when the new catalog comes out, so if you love it, be sure to get some before then!

Springtime Blossoms!

Here is a card I really enjoyed making at my upline's Stamp Camp.  I just think those little flowers are so cute!  They are punched from Daffodil Delight using the new Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch. The centers are from Tangerine Tango, punched using the 1/2" Circle Punch.  A little layer of Wild Wasabi serves as the grass (I sponged a little ink to make it look more grassy).  I used the Aqua Pen to color the stems and leaves, as well as the cute bird bath stamp from the new Touch of Kindness set in the new Summer Mini Catalog.  The Whisper White background was embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder and backed with a layer of Bashful Blue cardstock.
